One single player pushing AC Milan bandwagon after being down 3-0, midfielder Kevin Prince Boateng equalizing the score with his 3 goals. Taking over to finish pushing the bandwagon is Milan defender Mario Yepes scoring the winning goal in the 83rd minute. A super comeback from Milan and tough lesson for Lecce not keeping the 3-0 but losing the match.
Game starting with a moment o of silence for the passing of Marco Simoncelli in t
Before the match Lecce are in the 19th position with 4 points and a negative goal difference of -6 while AC Milan are in the 13th position with 8 points and an even goal difference "0".
Milan with the third consecutive victory and keeping recovering points. Last week defeating Palermo with 3-0 in San Siro and on Wednesday defeating FC Bate Borisov in the Champions League Group Stage game in San Siro with goals by Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Kevin Prince Boateng.
A special moment for Ibrahimovic too as he was presented as new rossonero player during a game against Lecce on August 29 ,2010,though, in San Siro.
Top scorer for Lecce is, well, hello, Lecce scoring only 3 goals while conceding 9! Top scorer for AC Milan is forward Antonio Cassano with 2. Milan scoring 8 goals while conceding 8.
Here is the official lineup from LECCE by coach:
LECCE (4-3-2-1): Benassi; Oddo, Tomovic, Esposito, Mesbah; Obodo, Strasser, Giacomazzi; Cuadrado, Grossmuller, Corvia
Here is the official lineup from AC MILAN by coach Massimiliano Allegri:
AC MILAN (4-3-1-2): Christian Abbiati; Ignazio Abate, Mario Yepes, Alessandro Nesta, Antonini; Ambrosini, Antonio Nocerino, Van Bommel; Robinho; Antonio Cassano, Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Taking the lead is Lecce in the 4th minute. An assist by Carlos Grossmuller towards Guillermo Giacomazzi while Milan defender failing to clear danger and Giacomazzi findin the spot to head the ball despite Milan goalkeeper Christian Abbiati anticipating but not able to clear in the center.
Lecce fans with a roaring applause to encourage the team for the miracle.
Mamma mia!!!! What has Abbiati done??!!! In the 28th minute Referee Romeo grants a penalty to Lecce. Yep, here is the thing, an error by AC Milan goalkeeper Christian Abbiati committing a foul in the penalty area on Daniele Corvia and you bet he realizes it. Making it more dramatic is that ex AC Milan defender Massimo Oddo converts the penalty! Oddo hesitating first, well, actually studying Abbiati as they know each other well, and then.... a run and bam a right footed shot in the top lect corner. hey, hey, hey, Oddo is also celebrating, unlike other former players who usually don't celebrate when scoring against their ex teams.
Closeup from AC Milan VP Adriano Galliani watching from the tribune and now making a phone call..
Say what!!! guys, believe it or not Lecce is totally humiliating AC Milan and it is the third goal of the match now. In the 37th minute running from the center of the box is Carlos Grossmuller and while Milan players attempted to block things went wrong for the rossoneri and Grossmuller's right footed shot like a bowling shot went slowly but with a lethal killer in the bottom left corner. Immediate reaction from players, staff, and fans.
First half ends 39% ball possession Lecce and 61% Milan
Second half starting with 2 substitutions from AC Milan trying to change the "goleada"....
Forward oRobinho out, midfielder Kevin Prince Boateng in
Midfielder Massimo Ambrossini out, midfielder Alberto Aquilani in
oh oh oh oh ... and you bet Milan coach Allegri must be thanking the heavens for his changes!!! In the 49th minute it is Aquilani to provide the assist to Kevin Prince Boateng coming from the left side. Boateng making way to smack a left footed shot defeating Lecce goalkeeper in the top right corner. the fury from Boateng celebrating and the push for his teammates to go for the comeback, the rimonta.
Now, Milan is back on business. Shortening the distance again is Boateng!!!! In the 55th minute Boateng splashing a right footed shot from outside the box defeating Lecce goalkeeper in the top left corner. Now, it is wake up call for Lecce to keep the victory or lose the leadership
hey hey hye... let me change the term "goleada"... Lecce forgetting the meaning of the word in the second half because AC Milan , well, BOATENG" drawing the score by himself. Yep, in the 63rd minute Boateng with a right footed shot defeating Lecce goalkeeper in the bottom right corner and you bet they must be wondering why he was on the bench!!! One player pushing the bandwagon!!!!
It's done.... AC Milan agaisnt all odds making the rimonta, the comeback. In the 83rd minute, defender Mario Yepes delivering the wining goal for Milan with a headed shot defeating Lecce goalkeeper in the top right corner after the assist by Cassano following a corner..
